Vision and Action: A Three-Year Retrospective on a Large-Scale Mobile Initiative, ELI Annual Meeting, February 4, 2014. In 2010, the University of Minnesota's College of Education and Human Development attracted the attention of higher education by announcing that it would provide its entire freshman class of 450 students with iPads in the largest pilot of its kind at a major research university. The presenters will share their different perspectives on lessons learned on this mobile initiative, now in its fourth year, and offer key considerations for those working on mobile integration in their programs or courses.
